Cucumis Sativus Water (Cucumber Hydrosol)

What is it?

Origin: Natural/Plant

Hydrosols, also known as Herbal Distillates or Floral Waters, are water-soluble components obtained by steam distillation from plants and herbs. The plant matter is distilled with water and steam. The distillate is then simply separated into an oil fraction - the essential oil, and a water fraction - the hydrosol.

In the past, these essential waters were often considered a byproduct of distillation, but now are considered an important co-product intended for topical use. 

Cucumber Hydrosol results from the distillation of Cucumber Fruit, no essential oil is obtained in this case as the water is actually the desired product. This is a 100% pure and natural, non-alcoholic distillate that is preserved with Grapefruit Seed Extract. 

Cucumber Hydrosol is known for its cooling and refreshing properties. It is also well-known as a calming and soothing ingredient and so might help sensitive or irritated skin.

Aqua & Kousou ekisu & Camellia sinensis leaf & Cyathea medullaris leaf extract & Ribes nigrum (Black currant) fruit extract & Pentylene glycol (New Zealand Native Red Seaweed & Mamaku - Black Fern with New Zealand grown certified Organic Green Tea & Blackcurrants)

What is it?

Origin: Natural/Plant

Regulatory: COSMOS Approved

This active ingredient has been obtained from New Zealand Native Red Seaweed, Mamaku - Black Fern, New Zealand grown certified Organic Green Tea and Blackcurrants. 

In the context of personal care products, active ingredients, also called bioactive compounds, are normally derived from plants. They generally undergo clinical studies to verify their health benefits once introduced into a formulation. 

Due to New Zealand’s geographical location and pristine natural environment, New Zealand’s land and sea botanicals may well contain one of the most powerful levels of antioxidants in the world. 

This bioactive ingredient has been processed via bio-liquefaction method. This low-speed and cold-crushing technology makes it possible to recover 100% of plant bioactive compounds in a completely bio-available and active form as water-based liquid ingredients, retaining the plant vitality and efficiently releasing vitamins, antioxidants, enzymes, and minerals.

The New Zealand Native Red Seaweed, are actually classified as algae, not plants. They are the oldest & largest group of algae in the world with various unique species found along the New Zealand coast. They are an excellent source of minerals, antioxidants, and enzymes. Red Seaweed contains sulphated glucosaminoglycans that are known to form a fishnet like matrix that can help to hold water molecules and tighten the skin. Accordingly they may help provide a potent hydrating, tightening and plumping effect on the skin. 

The Mamaku - Black Fern is a native New Zealand plant that has developed defensive and adaptive mechanisms to thrive in this unique environment. Mamaku was used topically in traditional Māori herbal medicine as a dressing for sores. Mamaku contains Glucuronomannans, which helps creating a viscoelastic matrix that can rapidly hydrate. Accordingly, Mamaku might help providing an immediate lifting and restorative boost of the skin.

New Zealand grown Green Tea delivers a protective function on the skin, helping to reduce oxidative stress and inflammatory processes. New Zealand grown Blackcurrant might help restore the production of elastin, collagen I and III. Blackcurrants also have UVB protective and anti-inflammatory effects. Accordingly, these two ingredients produce a catalyst effect by helping to restore and protect sun damaged skin.

Pentylene glycol acts as a hydrating and solvent agent. It’s antimicrobial, aids penetration of other ingredients and a silky-feeling enhancer.
